appearance : olivia always seems to look happy, she tends to try and keep a smile on her face no matter what is going on around her. getting a smile from her isn't rare, but getting a true, genuine one that makes the lines near her eyes crease is. her energy is warm, and it's inviting. she looks like the type of person that would give really great hugs, which she does. she appears to be full of life, from the vibrance of her hair, to the way she holds herself, to how her eyes seem to shine when she's happy. she's about average height, maybe 5'5-5'6. she only gets a very light dusting of freckles across her face during the summer, when she's in the sun a lot. she tends to look very put together, like she took her time to get ready every morning.

personality : olivia is someone who just draws you in. once you get a little bit of her personality revealed to you, you simply just find yourself wanting more and more. she's someone who has a lot of friends, but not very many close friends that she would trust with her life. it seems that as time passes, she gets happier and happier. she will not be emotionally vulnerable until she is close to you, but she'll listen to anything and everything you tell her, and she remembers. most people don't think it, but she's actually very intelligent.

fears : becoming like her parents. her biggest fear is that if she ends up having kids one day, she won't be there for them enough and they'll end up hating her for it. she's also a huge people pleaser and fears the fact that she won't be perfect for every single person she comes into contact with, failure is one of her biggest fears.

backstory : olivia didn't have the best childhood. she was born to two extremely absent parents (both physically and emotionally), and her older sister was fifteen years older than her. her parents were always working, and when they weren't working they really didn't care about olivia, and she didn't have any other family to go live with. olivia had two choices, become like her miserable parents or make something of herself. she juggled working and highschool, and made enough money to move to a big apartment in the city by herself right after highschool. she was a quiet child, she kept her head down for the most part. but, she healed as time went on, and despite being alone for a long time, she's the happiest she's ever been.
